John: Ohhhh... I am so glad to be home!! Mrs. Newdwitt didn't show up for a three hour appointment this morning, so we juggled patients, trying to fill the space... then, our computer at the front desk went down, so we were out of commission for most of the day. I missed lunch... we have two sterilizers and one stopped working. Then, the suction system packed up. There was enough tension among the staff I thought the place would explode! Melviss Drivel left her whiny kids in the reception area while we did her cleaning and one of them broke a lamp... my dental chair locked into the "down" position, so I spent all afternoon working in a position like this!! How was your day? Elly: Fine! I was going to tell him it was terrible!!
